Hi everybody!

Just got my greedy little hands on an Exidy Spectar PCB set and I noticed something odd (to me anyway) about the video output. It has the typical R,G,B, v-sync and H-sync, but it also has a "C-sync", what is that and what do I have to do with it to connect to a standard monitor?
 
That's probably composite sync. It's the combination of H- an V-syncs. It just allows more options for monitor connections. Ie...you should be able to connect that to a regular TV monitor with RGB inputs.

If your monitor has H- and V-sync inputs, you can use those and ignore the C-sync ouptut from the board.
